Blueberry, Austin

The Austin blueberry is a rabbiteye blueberry variety that pulls double duty. It’s an attractive ornamental landscape option that produces tasty, healthy, plump blueberries every year. Those in warmer climates (Zones 7-9) will receive some of the largest, juiciest blueberries one can grow. The Austin Blueberry bush will not disappoint. When you plant blueberries in early spring youll be able to enjoy your first harvest that very summer. Thanks to hand-grafting, your Austin Blueberry Bush “thinks” it’s older. That means instead of waiting two to three years until you’re ready for blueberry picking season, you can reap the benefits of plucking giant berries the very first year! Unlike blueberry plants you find at wholesale stores and most nurseries, your plant is shipped with the root system intact. We don’t ship bare-root, so your bush will have a great head start, with a healthy root system ready to thrive as soon as it’s planted. Furthermore, your Austin Blueberry plant is naturally low maintenance and does well on its own. Superior to Super Market Blueberries Berries at the market are convenient but nothing compares to the flavor of home-grown Austin Blueberries. They’ll start out sweet and almost tangy, and as they ripen, get sweeter and juicier. Supermarket berries are picked before they ripen and then chilled. They never have a chance to sweeten. The process used to provide berries to consumers is also expensive. That cost is passed along on to you.
